2016/17 Wakeboard Scholarship Launched

Back for its third year, Our wakeboarding scholarship is now open for applications.

We are delighted to announce the opening of our 2016/17 BH Outdoor Project Wakeboarding Scholarship. This is the third year of our scholarship program and over 20 participants have already successfully gone through the program. This year we are on the hunt once again for 10 local young people to take part in 16 weeks of FREE wakeboarding.

We love this sport and we want to give back to the wake community and impart as much knowledge as possible to the young people of our local community. This course has a value of over €3000 and we are giving it away for free just to see how good a standard we can get the participants. Over the last two scholarship programs participants have gone on to win competitions all over Ireland and are now regular members of our club. We hope to add many more this year.

Throughout the scholarship the riders will get bags of time of the water, learn all about the history of the sport and the direction it's headed. Learn about social media and blogging techniques along with getting their own video edits by the end of the season. It is a fantastic opportunity for anybody interested in sport to carve out a niche for themselves in this country.

We are hoping to kick start the scholarship in two weeks so download the application form below and email it completed into the office. All completed forms will get a free beginner lessons so you have nothing to lose and everything to gain!! Please share and spread the word to anyone you think might be interested.

See you on the park soon.

Team Ballyhass.
